Critics Consensus

While Clock may strain some viewers' suspension of disbelief, it's a mostly effective attempt to view reproductive pressures through a chilling horror lens.

Randy Myers

San Jose Mercury News

Agron throws herself fully into the role and the first 45 minutes of Jacknow’s disturbing commentary works wonders, but it strays and winds up losing its punch near its end.

Rated: 2.5/4

Noel Murray

Los Angeles Times

Clock leans too heavily on too-obvious visual metaphors, but it’s still a vivid and visceral explication of one woman’s fears.

Elisabeth Vincentelli

New York Times

“Clock” is a psychological thriller, or perhaps even a satire, in horror clothing, tantalizing us with thought-provoking ideas, only to abandon them...

Cinema Elite

[Alexis Jacknow] makes sure to weave into the narrative the innate fear and anxiety women could have, either to conform to social comfort or in anticipation of their concerns falling on deaf ears.

Rated: 3/5

Draftkings Nation

'Clock' gets to the root of the patriarchal standards women have to operate within with a sometimes grim filter.

Rated: 3/5

As soon as one reads the synopsis, it’s clear what they’re getting themselves into. Sure, it’s been done before, but not like this and not with this sense of urgency.

This is a very interesting horror/thriller dealing with motherhood and female "biological clocks". It is a well-acted and directed movie that has some interesting ideas and really creepy scenes.

Scena finale da brividi!!!! «Alla fine, il tempo ha smesso di correre. Nessun ticchettio, nessuna voce che urla “è ora”, nessuna mano che stringe. Solo il silenzio del mare. Le manette non ci sono più. Forse non ci sono mai state. Forse erano solo il riflesso delle catene che portavo dentro. Ora il peso è sparito. Non sono più figlia, né paziente, né colpevole. Sono solo. E lì, accanto a me, una creatura lenta, fragile… libera. La vedo scivolare tra le rocce, senza paura, senza scopo, ma viva. Forse è così che si rinasce. Non tra le urla di un parto, ma nel silenzio di una resa. Non ho più bisogno di un orologio. Perché, finalmente… il tempo è mio.»

First half is UNBELIEVABLY boring and added very little to the movie. Mostly long slow conversations that don't matter or the character doing things in silence. Driving etc. Second half is horror but more nonsensical. Like lots of flashing images, horror noises and insanity of the character. And the overall story is just boring. Nothing was even remotely interesting or enjoyable about this. Filmed in a very bland artsy style that makes the movie that much more drab and dull.

Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars

It's extremely annoying nonsense. It's just ridiculous. There's not much to say other than that.
